El-Attarine Medersa

The El-Attarine Medersa (religious school) was built between 1323 and 1325 and is considered to be one of the wonders of Moorish architecture.

This was obviously taken at far too slow a shutter speed, but it’s the only picture I have of this intricate ceiling (well, I have two but the other one was totally unusable), and I thought it was magnificent.

Difficult to get an idea of scale, but it makes a very beautiful shot V

Magnificent ceiling, Helen, and very well "squared-up".
